A large industrial equipment manufacturer of radiators for heavy equipment is dedicated to providing heat exchanging devices that combine quality with reasonable pricing. Their desire to establish successful partnerships with their customers gives them a distinct advantage over their competitors. They assist their customer from product design through the final product, while constantly adapting to changes in the market. In order to maintain this moniker they needed to guarantee that each customer received their radiator kit with all of the correct components. They required a way to double-check this guarantee and called on METTLER TOLEDO to establish one such solution.
The customer’s existing safeguard was to pre-count the pieces in each kit manually and after the kits were completed to recount the items again. This process was not only time consuming, it still allowed for a margin of human-error. The METTLER TOLEDO sales representative recommended the BBK462 counting scale with SmartManager software, a barcode scanner and label printer.
The BBK462 is a part of the four-series of counting scales designed for real industrial counting. The ten function keys designed specifically for reliable, easy and fast counting makes counting even small items simple. The SmartManager application and configuration software fits any standard PC interface for user-friendly and efficient data entry. SmartManager can be used as a central database and can be administered and processed easily through import and export functions.
Using the BBK462, the customer is able to count out proper amounts when creating the radiator kits. With each kit pre-programmed into the SmartManager software, they simply scan the kit number and the BBK462 recognizes how many components need to be added to each package. Once the kit is complete, a label is printed showing the exact number components in each kit. This acts as both a first and last check on each kit created.
Since the installation of the BBK462 system the customer has increased throughput and their kit quality is unsurpassed. This one scale has aided in the production and productivity of the entire radiator division. The idea of implementing this system into other divisions of the company has created quite a stir and the possibility of future installations is imminent.
